Bagnaia reinforces italian dominance in the middle class

Francesco ‘Pecco’ Bagnaia became Moto2 world champion in Sepang, securing another title in the intermediate category for Italy, with the italians to have more than double the nation’s titles that follow with most champions pilots, Spain.

Seven spanish riders won ten world championships in the 250cc class and Moto2 against the 15 italian athletes who won 24 world titles in these classes. It follows the United Kingdom, with four riders to win nine world championships.

Max Biaggi, with four world titles in this category, is the one who contributed most to the italian dominion, which already has two Moto2 world championships in a row, with Pecco following Franco Morbidelli, who this year competes in the premier class.
